In 1911, Dubouis determined all positive integers represented by sums of k nonvanishing squares for all k ≥ 4. As a generalization, Y.-S. Ji, M.-H. Kim and B.-K. Oh determined all positive definite binary quadratic forms represented by sums of k nonvanishing squares for all k ≥ 5. In this article, we give a simple proof for Ji-Kim-Oh's theorem for all k ≥ 10.

Characteristics of the lifted flame which is generated by issuing of the fuel through the miniature nozzle, d=0.164 mm, are studied using the planar laser induced fluorescence technique. OH radical is excited on the $Q_1$(8) line of the $A^2{\Sigma}\ ^+{\leftarrow}\ X^2{\prod}$ (1,0) band transition(283.55 nm) and LIF signals are captured at the bands of (0,0) and (1,1) transition(306-326 nm) using the filters and ICCD camera. Hydroxyl radical(OH) profile for nozzle attached flame shows that OH radical populations at the flame sides and flame tip are larger than those at the base. But for the lifted flame (tribrachial flame) case, those are larger at the flame base than at the flame tip and flame sides. The OH radical is more dense near the center line of flame base at the blowing out. This fact proves the Chung and Lee's blowout theory - blowout occurs when the flame is anchored at the flame axis.

Energy transfer dynamics of excited vibrational energy of OH stretching bonds in liquid water is theoretically studied. With time-dependent vibrational Hamiltonian obtained from a mixed quantum/classical calculation, we construct a master equation describing the energy transfer dynamics. Survival probability predicted by the master equation is compared with numerically exact one and we found that incoherent picture of energy transfer is reasonably valid for long-time population dynamics. Within the incoherent picture, we assess the validity of independent pair approximation (IPA) often introduced in the theoretical models utilized in the analysis of experimental data. Our results support that the IPA is almost perfectly valid as applied for the vibrational energy transfer in liquid water. However, proper incorporation of radial and orientational correlations between two OH bonds is found to be critical for a theory to be quantitatively valid. Consequently, it is suggested that the Forster model should be generalized by including the effects of the pair correlations in order to be applied for vibrational energy transfer in liquid water.

The anharmonic frequency of a local OH stretching mode of a water monomer and dimer was calculated using various levels of density functional theory. The quantum chemical potential energy curves as a function of the OH bond distance were calculated, and they were fitted with the Morse potential function to analytically obtain the fundamental transition frequency. By comparing those values with the frequencies similarly calculated using an ab initio quantum chemical method, the coupled cluster theory including both single and double excitations with the perturbative inclusion of triple excitation in the complete basis limit, the accuracy of various density functional methods in the calculation of anharmonic vibration frequency of water molecules was assessed. For a water monomer, X3LYP and B3LYP methods give the best accuracy, whereas for a water dimer, B972, LCBLYP, ${\omega}B97X$, ${\omega}B97$ methods show the best performance.

Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) can be generated by using non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma jet which have profound biomedical applications [1, 2]. In this work, reactive oxygen species like hydroxyl radical (OH) are generated by using non-thermal direct plasma jet above water surface using Ar gas and their properties have been studied using ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy. OH radicals are found to be generated simultaneously with the discharge current with concentration of $2.7{\times}1015/cm3$ at 7mm above water surface while their persistence time have been measured to be $2.8{\mu}S$. In addition, it has been shown that plasma initiated ultraviolets play a major role to generate RONS inside water. Further works are going on to measure the temporal behavior of OH and $O2^*-$.

The synthesis of naturally occurring mollugin and its analogues, 3,4-dihydromollugin, cis-3,4-dihydroxy-3,4- dihydromollugin, and trans-3,4-dihydroxy-3,4-dihydromollugin was achieved starting from 1,4-dihydroxynaphthalene- 2-carboxylic acid. The key reaction is an electrocyclization for pyranyl ring formation in the presence of PhB(OH)2/AcOH.

The amount of phenol and NaOH for the colorimetric determination of ammonia in Korean standard methods (KSM) is found to be highly excessive compared to the standard methods of several other countries. The absorbance of indophenol formed by the Berthelot reaction for ammonia analysis was measured under the various reaction conditions classified in experiment groups 1, 2, 3, 4 and KSM and American standards methods (ASM), and the relationships between the absorbance of indophenol and concentration of ammonia were compared. The amount of phenol can be reduced to 10 g (current 25 g in KSM) and NaOH can be reduced to 1.76 g (current 11 g in KSM) for the preparation of 200 mL phenate solution, and the absorbance sensitivity increased. The concentration of the phenol and NaOH correlatively affect the pH of the solution, which is a critical variable in achieving the maximum sensitivity and rapid and stable color development.

The roots of Dipsacus asper are used in traditional Chinese medicine as an analgesic, enhancement of liver activity, an anti-inflammatory agent and the treatment of fractures. In order to investigate the antioxidative activity, Dipsaci Radix was extracted with MeOH and fractionated with $CHCl_3$, EtOAc, BuOH and water. MeOH ex. and its solvent fractions were determined on the free radical scavenging activity by DPPH method and antioxidative activity on low density lipoprotein oxidation. The EtOAc and BuOH fractions showed antioxidative activities and from their fractions, two compounds were isolated and identified as hederagenin 3-O-${alpha}$-L-arabino pyranoside (compound 1) and O-${\alpha}$-L-arabinopyranosyl hed-eragenin 28-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl ($1{\to}6$)-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl ester (compound 2). Saponin glycoside, compound I showed anti-oxidative activity.

Daily oral administration to Sprague Dawly rats for 4 weeks of DWP-301, at doses of 0, 500, 1000, 2000 mg/kg presented following results; 1) No animals died and there were no significant differences in general signs, body weight, food consumption, urinalysis haematological, biochemical, gross pathological and histopathological examination between control and treated rats. 2) Water consumption, pH-, protein- urobilinogen-, ketone-values in urine were significantly increased in the treated male and female rats. It is supposed that these differences in animals are a consistent feature of repeated overdosage with test suspensions. The results indicate that the non toxic dose of test compounds in rats is over 2000 mg/kg in this test system.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of $Ca(OH)_2$ and $CO_2$ additions on the corrosion of metal coupons(ductile iron, galvanized steel, copper and stainless steel). Corrosion rate and released metal ion concentration of ductile iron and galvanized steel decreased by adjusting alkalinity, calcium hardness and pH with $Ca(OH)_2$ & $CO_2$ additions on copper and stainless steel were less than those on ductile iron and galvanized steel. When ductile iron coupon was exposed to water treated with Ca(OH)$_2$&$CO_2$, additions, the main components of corrosion product formed on its surface were $CaCO_3$ and $Fe_2 O_3 or Fe_2 O_4$ which often reduce the corrosion rate by prohibiting oxygen transport to the metal surface.
